Neo Genesis marked the debut of Generation II in the English Pokémon Trading Card Game, expanding the set roster to 111 cards and introducing Dark and Steel Energy types. Lugia served as the mascot for Pokémon Silver and stands as the primary chase card of the Neo era. Initial 1st Edition print runs for the set were notoriously condition-sensitive, often suffering from factory print lines and edge wear straight out of the booster pack, making strong subgrades across edges and corners difficult to achieve.Show more
